peacefully side by side, seeming to muse
on the stately leisure and unruffed

Bookstore, and yet of them all it
harbored the greatest treasure. Its
gloome depths were brightened by the
one glowing, vital thing of the. street..

Jerry had seen her for the first time
exactly a week ago. He had, almost
accidently, discovered the little street
tucked away in the héart of the lab-
tyinth; and intrigued past its shops, a
smile of surprised amusement on his
face.

“Feel as though I'd stepped back into
a page of Dicken’s” he amused, as’ he
passed “an antique shop, in: whose
shadowy. recesses his fancy could. al-
most desecry the vague forms of Little
}Nell and: her .Grandfather.
He strolled on slowly, and passing a
“tiny doorway, was almost bowled over
by the sudden egress of a chubby little

did your desire some old volume: long

somewhere, author unknown, title half

Bookstore.

But Jerry knew ee of this. In
its air of antiquity and mellow must-
iness, hiding ‘perhaps Some treasured

shop; and ithe dim window, peering
owlishly with a grave, unwinking stare
out into the: narrow street, was but a
tantalizing -viel, through which he
gazed enrapt at the cause of his aie
den exclamation.

The laté afternoon sun laid a slanting
finger of light across the hook-littered
counter, It touched the girl warmly,

her head bent over a bulky volume
Down’ the beam of light a thousand
‘thousand tiny specks of golden dust
floated and ‘danced, bathing the girl
in a flood of tremulous glory. Over
the dingy counter and battered’ youmes
a mellow mist was flung, transmuting
their dinginess to a soft radiance,
seen through this aura of jewelled
light, her hair flai.ng in short, silky
curls from the pearly whiteness of her
forehead, was the concentrated essence
almost the emanation, of the golden
glow. Around her
notes whirled—enchanted dust. The
little street was very still. Jefry had
gazed for one brief moment and then,
by a miracle of will power, strolled
on, aimlessly.

And every day since then he had, at
thé same hour, sauntered past ---- little
shop seen her, tried ‘to think of: an ex-

now .it was Tuesday again. The little

Presently, around the corner, walk-

of the window. She was there, bathed
in the golden mist, the glory of her
hair was dazzling. Jéerry-faltered, then
with grim earnestness flung open the
door and stumbléd down the few
steps which led into ‘the ‘dim recesses};
of the store. For a moment he stood,
blinking almost confused, in: the cool
shadows. The shaft of light, had failed
and with its going the shabby shelves

floor, on chairs, counters, shelves;

breathed deeply,

“No—no I suppose not,” he was
crestfallen, “But with renewed cheerful

She was silent for a moment.

“Well, perhaps,” she agresd softly,

The following day Jerry dropped in
again. The book had not come, but
then it might have, one could never
tell. It was warm outside, but the little
store was cool, book lined grotto.
Chloé was busy unpacking a shipment
which had just arrived.

“Grandfather bought these at an
auction the other day,” she told him
“That’s why they are so old and grub
by.”

She brushed back a rebellious curl,
leaving a smudge of dust on her white
forehead.

“Let me help,” said Jerry eagerly.
“I’m awfully gopd at unpacking things

Under her direction,. he lifted and
carried books ifdustriously. Chloe sat
on the counter, and swung her slim
legs meditatively,

“How is it you always come past at
the same hour. Mr, Kent?” she asked
and then bushed, oh, such a rosy be-
traying blush, (Horrors! Now he
would know that she had watched for
him every day as he sauntered’ past!)

But Jerry, if he noticed the slip and
the blush, gave no sign.

1 have listened with pleasure on
many occasions to members opposite
particularly to the honorable leader
of the opposition, (Hon. J. R. Boyle)
as he has expounded and lecturéd on
the great and sacred principles, upon
which the British Constitution and the
Liberal Party are founded. I have
appreciated being reminded of these
great and sacred principles from time
to time., However, I do feel, that_if
members of past governments in this
province had given more time to the
thoughtful and careful study of the
principles underlying a safe and sound
policy of public finance, and taxation,
the people of Alberta might not to-
day be staggering under the burden
of some sixty-eight million dollars of
bonded debt. ;

During the past few years we have
all learned many lessons, ina personal:
way at least, regarding problems of
finance. It is not fair to expect that
the mistakes of the past can all’ be
rectified in one, two, or even a few
years. The province has been drift-
ing for a number of years into the
position it is in today, The problem
of readjustment is a complex prob-
and cannot: be solved in one or two
years. Nevertheless we must . have
patience and realize that. the problem
facing us. today, is in many respects
greater than any problem any prov-
‘incial government has ever had to
faces

Conditions During the War

The problem during the war years,
was not, or should not have been diffi-
cult for a provincial government.
Prices for all farm products were ab-
normally high and crops averaged on
the whole much better than they have
since the war. Wheat during the
years 1915, 1916,and 1917 in Alberta
averaged 24.75 bushels per acre while
during the years 1918, 1919, 1920, and
1921 it has only averaged about elev-
en bushels per acre, Farmers as: a
class, during the war invested all their
spare capital into increased farming
operations. Then came the terrible
drought years of 1918 and 1919 ‘fol-
lowed by one of the longest and most
severe. winters in the history of the
province. So severe was the situation
at that time, that the late adminis-
tration was called upon to: advance
over two millions of dollars for re-
lief purposes. Prices of feed and-la-
bor remained high throughout the
winter and-summer of. 1920: The
crash in prices of farm products
came just as the farmers were about
to realize on the most expensive year
in farming operations in the history
of this province. It is only when we
look up the records that we can get
a clear idea of what the farmers of
this province have suffered. Al-
ready at».that time the difficilty of
collecting taxes was very marked.
Yet the government of that day did
‘not heed the signs of the times. It
continued its policy df increasing ser-
vices and expenditures until the peo-
ple of Alberta called a halt by elect-
ing a new government.

Conditions Since the War.

When the present government is
making drastic curtailments in public
services and expenditures, the -people
of the province must realize, that they
can no longer pay for the services
they once enjoyed. After all Alber-
ta is an agricultural province and

| the degree of public expenditure: is
| largely dependent upon the prosperity
) of the farmer. In 1920 there weve

. The same facts hold good’ for. t

for. Alberta cattle quoted in the Can-

to 1921 lost in depreciation: in value

dred dollars, This does not take into
consideration the enormous feed bill
for the winter of 1919-1921.

Drought and Grasshopper Menace
“In addition to the crash in prices
of farm products, we have had to con-
tend with exceptional unnatural cir-
cumstances during the past few years,
which have cost the people of the pro-
vince millions of dollars—namely: the
problems of drought and the grass-
hopper menace. We are all more or
less familiar with the drought ‘and
grasshopper situation in Alberta, In
1918 the average production of wheat
in Alberta was six bushels per acre.
In 1919 it was eight bushels per acre.
The drying up of-the river bottoms in
Southern Alberta, during these years,
